CARMA – RMA and other non-formal learning methods for student’s motivation is a two-and-a-half-year initiative that started in January 2016 and is funded by the ERASMUS+ Programme and coordinated by CESIE.

This report is a result of an in depth research study for the project CARMA, carried out across 7 European countries (Italy, Spain, France, Portugal, Turkey, Belgium and Austria), concerning statistics and policies regards early school leaving, existing national frameworks for the assessment of teacher competences, benchmarks used and applied standards and collection of good practices in collaborative learning in schools.

This report provides the summary of the results from an extensive Needs Analysis Survey carried out as part of the research activity for the project CARMA, across Italy, Spain, France, Portugal, Turkey, Belgium and Austria. The report collects data from 1225 respondents involving teachers, students, parents and stakeholders on collaborative teaching and learning within school education. The report explores the real needs and quantifies these needs to gain a deeper knowledge on how to adapt the non-formal learning methods (to be introduced during the piloting phase) to each community and respective school system.
